Meet the Wilsons (In Person)

August 9, 1:30-3:00pm

$15 per session | In Person at the Louis B. Wilson House Patio

Location: Assisi Heights (1001 14th Street NW, Rochester, MN 55901) Click here for map.

Near the upper end of the winding driveway to Assisi Heights sits the former home of Dr. Louis B. Wilson now known as Walnut Hill. This property was just outside the city limits of Rochester when Dr. Wilson purchased it in 1923. When he married Maude Mellish, in 1924, the couple immediately moved into a newly built guest cottage on the site. In 1925, a much larger house, designed by architect Harold Crawford, was completed and the Wilsons occupied it. We invite you to come meet the Wilsons and hear their own personal stories on the front lawn overlooking the city below. Bring a chair.

Ken Allsen, Sister Marlys Jax and Patricia Barrier will portray the Wilsons.
